Surely a better PR approach from the side of SQ. Otherwise Qatar has a major objection to A350 fleet to the point they turned to Boeing's new 777 generation in protest, and that is possibly far more serious concern over the materials that are chipping... A350 is made of composites, and they've discovered degradation during repainting. Airbus states that's a cosmetic issue, Qatar disagrees. I wonder why we don't hear of this from B787, I would have thought they'd both be using same composites?

It's planned to be like ESTA for US - online form to fill out, like a visa form, upload documents, pay fee online. Within usually minutes (we'll see about that) you'd get an email with a travel authorisation, which you print out or have on you just in case. You proceed to check-in counter of flight to Thailand, and they'll check your passport against the list - and if you have it, you're allowed to board, if not, you could probably do it right there and a short moment later continue checkin. In Thailand it's a check just like a visa, whether your passport has been authorized and you're allowed to enter. ESTA is valid for 2 years, some others are valid 1-2 years. Basically that gives government a chance to check the background of visitors before they arrive. And collect some revenue from the visitors, like 500 baht...

Donating to an organization works - you can deduct 1x the amount that you donated. You need to get a letter from them confirming that donations. However if you donate to organization that directly supports education, then you can deduct 2x the amount you have donated. Example: In first case, let's say you have 30% tax rate and you've donated 50k baht, you can put that 50k on the form and with the deduction get a 15k refund. In second case, you donated 50k for education, you would put 50k into another field, and it will give deduction of 100k, thus you'd receive a refund of 30k. It would be best to check with someone else which organizations allow such double deduction. I've done donation to schools before but it was beginning of the year and by the time it came to submitting paperwork for taxes I've already lost all the documents, so I never submitted it. But I guess that would do. What you're suggesting above would definitely not fly, though. -

Teeth Whitening Bangkok, recent info
tomazbodner replied to TheLaughingMan's topic in Health and Medicine
DentSociety at Marche Thonglor has this Philips Zoom machine that has quite good results, but I didn't try it myself. It's a very new clinic so everything is new and clean, and it's a bit cheaper than some other larger clinics around it. Dentist is nice, very detailed, but as said, I didn't do whitening there. You can add them by Line and talk to their admin. That's how I scheduled all appointments (and told them I'll be late as I was stuck in traffic): -

DDPai Z50, expensive a bit but overall excellent. Back camera takes some work to install so it was bought from a shop in Bangkok that offered installation as well. Came handy to record a white Mazda 2 rear-ending the car while its driver as playing with the phone...
